The Delft Blockchain Lab is looking for talented and ambitious researchers whose responsibilities include:
- Conducting research in computer-science related aspects of blockchain technology, including the co-supervision of PhD students. The exact subfield of computer science is not predetermined, and the research can be of a theoretical (including security-oriented) or a systems nature.
- Co-supervising bachelor’s and master’s students in their graduation projects;
- Contributing to transferring knowledge and technology to external parties.
The Delft Blockchain Lab (DBL) of Delft University of Technology invites applicants for postdoc positions in blockchain technology in the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science. DBL takes a holistic approach to investigating and developing scalable, robust, privacy-sensitive and secure blockchain systems. Its blockchain research ranges from systems aspects and applications to theoretical and ethical aspects. For these postdoc positions, DBL invites applicants with a strong background in the theoretical or systems aspects of blockchain.
The Delft Blockchain Lab
The Delft Blockchain Lab (DBL, https://www.tudelft.nl/delft-blockchain-lab), under the leadership of Prof. Dick Epema and Dr. Johan Pouwelse, brings together all blockchain-related research of TU Delft. DBL is largely based in the two Computer-Science Departments Intelligent Systems (in particular, the Section Cybersecurity) and Software Technology (in particular, the Sections Distributed Systems and Software Engineering). However, it also performs research into ethical and science communication aspects of blockchain and into applications of blockchain such as intelligent power grids. Its research roadmap calls for the design, deployment and analysis of a complete blockchain-based software stack for trust in the internet, together with research into the fundamental aspects that support this design. DBL strongly builds on more than a decade of research in peer-to-peer and reputation systems at TU Delft, and has grown into one of the larger blockchain labs in Europe. It has produced several world-first innovations such as a fully scalable blockchain architecture and a decentralized blockchain-regulated market, and it has replaced proof-of-work with trust.
The Departments Intelligent Systems and Software Technology
The Departments of Intelligent Systems (INSY) and Software Technology (ST) together constitute one of the leading Dutch departments in research and academic education in computer science, employing over 300 people. The departments together are responsible for the curriculum of the bachelor’s and master’s programmes in Computer Science as well as the master’s programme in Embedded Systems. The inspiration for its research topics is largely derived from technical ICT problems in industry and society related to cybersecurity, computer graphics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, large-scale distributed processing, embedded systems, programming productivity, and web-based information analysis.
